How the day works
We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. After-work summer events in Winchelsea have daylight until about 9:15pm in late June and 7:00pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need a lit spot for the van.
- You tell us the date, the site, rough numbers and your break times.
- You get a quote and answers to facilities’ questions.
- We agree where the van parks and when it arrives with you or facilities.
- We cook to order for each group as they come out.
- We pack up and leave the space as we found it.

The menu, dish by dish

For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and it’s a favourite with children.
Gravy
In the north and the Midlands, gravy is the side of choice, and it’s lovely with a pie.
Working with your venue
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll talk you through the process. We’re happy to liaise with facilities on parking and timings.
If your event is in a public place, such as a park or a street, check what permission you need first. Ask the council or landowner early.
Is a fish and chip van right for your staff event?
Next to a sandwich lunch, fish and chips feels like a real thank-you. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, since getting the van there costs the same however many eat. Ask us what applies to your staff event.
What you get with us
- Cod, haddock, sausages and pies
- Quick service from the hatch
- Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side

What else we do in Winchelsea
Winchelsea questions
Can the van park in Rye Harbour LNR?
Only with permission from the park’s owner, typically the council. Ask them first, and tell us what they say.
Do you come out to small places like Winchelsea?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
Do you fry it on site?
Yes, always. Everything is fried fresh in the van, then handed over hot from the hatch.
Do you need power or water?
A suitable spot for the van and permission to park there. Mention any power or water available and we will confirm the rest.
How long are you on site?
We arrive well before service to park and heat the fryers. Timings are agreed in advance so food is ready when you want it.
What paperwork do you provide?
Sites vary, so ask facilities for their list and pass it on.
Do you do customer events and open days?
We do. A chip van gives visitors something to queue for and talk about.
How long will the queue be?
Keeping choices simple and sending people up in groups helps. Tell us your timings and we’ll advise.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
